Abstract: A method for reducing light-induced-degradation in manufacturing a solar cell, includes the steps of: (a) irradiating the solar cell with an irradiance; (b) maintaining the solar cell within a temperature range; (c) removing the solar cell away from the irradiance of step (a) after a time; and (d) determining the irradiance, the temperature range, and the time such that the LID is optimally below a predetermined LID.

Abstract: A method for bow reduction of a composite sheet includes providing a bow composite sheet including a top sheet and a bottom sheet, the top sheet including a non-metal and the bottom sheet including a metal, and either placing the bow composite sheet on a continuous transportation unit including a cooling unit to substantially eliminate the bow through the cooling unit, or placing the bow composite sheet on a fixed cooling unit spraying a cooling fluid to substantially eliminate the bow.

Abstract: A disk magazine for accessing Compact Disks includes a bottom stage, a vertical shaft fixed and supported at the bottom stage, a prop-up piece being loaded with Compact Disks and having an opening through which the vertical shaft extends, a barrel tightly combined with the bottom stage at the lower end, and a lid tightly covering up the upper side of the bottom stage. The lid is provided with a fixing hole into which the tapering tip pole of the vertical shaft inserts, and two O-rings are used for sealing between the lid and barrel, as well as between the bottom stage and barrel respectively to prevent the disk magazine from the environmental contamination.

Abstract: A transportation mechanism of magnetic handling for accessing Compact Disks. The transportation mechanism includes a reciprocating device having a base, an electromagnetic head provided on the base, a control unit controlling the reciprocating device such that the base is reciprocated between different processing positions, and a magnetic spacer. The Compact Disk, sandwiched by the electromagnetic head and the magnetic spacer as the magnetic spacer is attracted by the electromagnetic head, is further transported by the transportation mechanism whereby the damage due to bad suction for CDs is minimized. Comparing with the conventional suction means by vacuum, the transportation mechanism of the invention is also advantaged for the simple structure, easy maintenance, and low cost, thereby raising the production yield.
